SEOprofiler: improved auto-complete for local ranking checks

The ranking monitor in our web-based Internet
marketing tool SEOprofiler enables you to
check the positions of your website from many different locations.
Depending on the location from which you search, Google delivers
different results.

For example, if you search for "plumber" in
Anaheim, you will get different results than someone who searches for
"plumber" in Thomasville. For that reason, it is important to consider
the location when you check the rankings of your website.

Ranking
checks from all official Google locations

The ranking
monitor in SEOprofiler supports all
locations that are officially supported by Google (more than 86,000
locations). You get the same results as if you were physically located
in a different city.

In addition to
many small and big cities you can
also track your rankings from airports, states, TV regions,
universities, and zip codes.

How to
specify a ranking check location

Specifying the location for the ranking check is
easy. Log in to SEOprofiler and click
the "Add your keywords" button on the "Ranked
keywords" page:

Then enter the keywords that you want to check and
select a country. Start typing a city name to get location suggestions:

Simply select the correct location in the list.
That's all there is to it.

What's new in
the local ranking checker?

We have improved the way the suggestion are
displayed:

The 600 most popular cities now appear at the
top of the suggestions (if they match your entry).

The tool now
understands US state abbreviations. For example, you get several city
suggestions if you enter "albany". If you enter "albany, ny", you'll
get the right city directly.

The tool now
supports variants of spelling. It does not matter if you enter "Köln"
or "Cologne", which is the same city. You can also enter "sao paulo" or
"sāo paulo". The ranking monitor supports these variations as well as
many other international spelling variations.

"Douglas
Mayle, who worked at Google as a Senior Software Engineer for almost
five years before moving to Facebook, wrote on Quora that he did not
have access to the search algorithms. He said he did have more access
to code at Google than most, but he was 'not in the very small group
who had access to Google search algorithms.'"

"The claims
section of this patent focus primarily upon matching text from an image
of a document with text on pictures of that document across the web.
The description section of the patent provides a broader reading of it,
where a document might also contain images of object, of people’s
faces, of entities and other things that it may try to match up between
a visual query and a document on the Web.

The description of this visual queries patent shows a search system
that might contain a lot of different visual recognition approaches,
like the one I mentioned above that was possibly used for Google
Goggles."

"Gary Illyes
from Google is our main go-to-guy at Google on the topic, he has been
incredibly transparent on giving us information around the algorithm
over the past year. He also added this morning that although he
does/did work on the search algorithm, he does not actively work on the
Penguin algorithm."

"Yandex
announced a new section in their new Yandex.Webmaster toolkit [at the
moment in Russian only] that will notify webmasters and site owners
about violations of Yandex SEO guidelines found on their web properties.
